Amaira's POV"I met a girl six years ago," he took a big breath, "she was beautiful," his gaze moved to my face and stopped there for a second, "but not more than you."He then blinked and averted his gaze before continuing his story."I was in love with her" he stopped for a moment "Um- huh!" He cleared his throat "I thought I was in love with her" he corrected himself "but it was simply a misunderstanding of youth," he said with a wide smile, "whatever it may be!" He turned around to face the dark sky, his palms resting on the edge of the window "At that time I was crazy for her as she was one of the most popular models of that time. A lot of men were behind her but she was mine" he chuckled "and I was proud of that" he chuckled once more "stupid me!" He slapped his head gently. He then turned around taking a deep audible breath. "I used to lavish her with money. She merely needed to put her finger on anything and the next day that thing was in her hands or within her reach," he e
Amaira's POV"After the baby took birth my undivided attention was drifted to him. I was not paying any attention to his mother, which was not digestible to her. She never saw my love and accepted me when I asked her earlier, but after the birth of my child, she wanted to be a permanent part of my life as she couldn't accept that I was giving all of my love to my kid. One day she said that she is ready to accept my proposal and marry me, but I responded the next day by saying that the proposal is no longer accessible and that she can now go wherever she wants, I don't really care about her" He took a deep breath. His eyes were now turned red and his nose was flaring. "Then she did the cruelest thing that no mother could ever do. She stopped feeding the baby after she tried every tactic and nothing worked on me. My son used to cry out of hunger" his lower lip quivered as he told me this "I immediately hired a nanny for him and requested her to leave my house, but she refused. She sta
Amaira's POVWhen I woke up the next day I didn't find Dominic by my side. I searched for him in the bathroom, in his favorite work room but he was nowhere to be seen. In fact, he was not even at home and no one knew where he is. I didn't even try to search for him more. It is not like he tells me where he is going before going anywhere. Lady Catherine and Ava demanded that I stay here for a few more days, and I agreed on the condition that I stay in a separate room. So, after breakfast, I moved into the room next door to Ava's. Dominic's family is aware that something is wrong between me and Dominic, but they are unaware of the reality of our relationship, how it began, and under what terms I was staying with him. Neither of us wants to tell them. When I am will be fit enough to travel, I will return to my own country, and Dominic will be free to tell them whatever he wants. I don't give a damn!"Amaira" I turned around as I heard Austin calling me "How are you?" He inquired. I si
Amaira's POVI went straight to my room and was so restless that I decided to spend the rest of the day there. The servant arrived at my room to summon me for dinner, but I told him merely to bring the food to my room because I didn't want to talk to anyone. I am now feeling really lonely and miss my father badly. He was a really mature man, and I am confident that if he had been here, he would have solved half of my problems. I can't even express my anxiety with my mother because she has a heart problem and I don't want her to be stressed out unnecessarily, this would adversely affect her health making me even more restless. I tried to read books to pass the time because I wasn't sleepy and couldn't distract my mind. My thoughts kept returning to my father, and his agonizing screams were still echoing in my ears. I know I won't be able to find peace until I give him justice, but I can't have the resolve to take the case to court and put Dominic behind bars.I put the book down after
Amaira's POV Ava decided to have some fun outside the palace on my birthday as she was feeling bored inside. She decided to go on a picnic with her husband, Austin, and John. I initially refused, but after several requests, I agreed to come only on the condition that I prepare something on my own. I enjoy cooking but haven't cooked anything since moving here. Servants don't allow me to even go near the stove. Although I couldn't cook anything significant because of my broken arm, I could at least make sandwiches that are easy to make. Ava went to Dominic to ask if he wanted to join us, as she did every time after forcing me to accede to her will, and as expected he flatly refused.So I prepared the sandwiches for the five of us while a servant helped me in providing the required things. When I finished making the five sandwiches, I set them aside. My hair kept coming in front of my eyes, making it difficult for me to see properly, but I couldn't tuck it behind my ear since my finge
Amaira's POVHis lips then started moving down and was about to claim mine when we heard some sounds at the entry of the kitchen which made us snap our heads in its direction at the same time. Dominic groan in anger as he saw Austin standing there! "I came for water!" He croaked, his eyes moving at our bodies that were still attached to each other. I pushed Dominic away with my right hand as soon as I realized what was going on. He also understood that I was no longer at ease, so he took a step back on his own, creating a healthy distance between the two of us. Austin stepped forward, filled a glass of water, and began sipping it while Dominic gave him a deathly stare. He seemed to want to murder him with his eyes. He was waiting for him to leave so that he could continue from where he left, but Austin was drinking water slowly."Amaira!" Before Austin could leave Ava came in calling my name "how much more time will you take?" She asked, "you have to get ready as well!" She told m
Amaira's POVWhile the rest of the people followed us, Ava dragged me only God knows where. She shushed me every time I opened my lips to ask her a question. She always does this. She is as dominant as his brother. No one allows me to open my mouth when they want something. She stopped after reaching to a certain point. "Here is your surprise!" She pointed to a massive object hidden behind the fabric, and to my surprise, it started moving. Is there any human she has bought for me? "What?" My face furrowed as my gaze shifted to Ava. I wasn't interested in what she had brought for me. It was giving me creepy vibes. "Go ahead and remove the cloth," she ordered just like her brother "after all, it's your gift!" She displayed her pearly white teeth to me. I don't know why but her smile felt a little suspicious and the way she was talking I got a little alert. This girl is incredibly devious, and I can't believe her blindly. She is capable of doing anything at any time. She is the nau
Amaira's POVMy birthday went really well. Austin took all of us for a family dinner after we returned from the picnic, making my birthday extra special. When I said there was no need for all of this, he explained that taking everyone out serves two purposes. One is my birthday, and the other is that Christmas is tomorrow so he wanted all of us to spend time together. According to him, festivals are the reason for the family to spend time together. I was already wide awake, but I was too tired to walk down the stairs. My mind was just thinking about the last day i.e. my birthday and the way Dominic made it special for me. I don't have enough words to thank him. The loud banging on my room's door brought me out of my reverie and forced me out of bed. I opened it only to be attacked by John, my monkey!"Merry Christmas, Amy!" He wished me while hugging me tightly and moving our bodies together from here to there. "Merriest Christmas, John!" I smiled and hugged him back. "You know Amy
